Ask an IC Question

Welcome to "Ask an interstitial cystitis (IC) Question!" If you have an IC-related question that you would like to ask us, please fill out and submit the form below. We will answer you by e-mail. Please double-check that you have typed your e-mail address correctly and that we are approved to pass through your spam filter. Emails to ICA are preferred. Due to funding limitations, ICA does not staff a patient support call center. If you do contact ICA by phone, please leave a detailed voicemail message and allow 2 to 3 business days for a response. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience and understanding.

All questions will receive a response. But we do not send questions to a physician or other authorized medical or legal provider. Thus, there is a limit to the topics we can cover: we cannot provide direct medical advice, medication advice, other treatment advice, or legal advice. The answers to these kinds of questions depend on your individual situation and health status; please direct them to your own healthcare team.

Don't forget to check out ICA’s Online Support Community where you can be connected to hundreds of other people experiencing similar symptoms, situations, experiences, and emotions. All of this is made possible through donations from people like you. Please consider supporting the ICA so that we can continue programs such as these.
